Williamsburg (for Sivani)

If you were here, I'd build a sukkah.
My home is waterless, but
I am a peninsula.
We will build a hut from our hair.

My home is waterless, but
if you were here, I'd be sleeping.
We will build a hut from our hair
and call it God.

If you were here, I'd be sleeping
outside, the sky constellationless,
and call it God,
jutting out yet still attached.

Outside. The sky constellationless.
I am a peninsula,
jutting out yet still attached.
If you were here, I'd build a sukkah.

P.S. For those of us on Eastern Standard Time, this was actually posted at 7:54 PM.
